Crow Docs v2.0 — New Tools, Supercharged OCR, and Bug Fixes
Hey everyone!
I'm excited to share a massive update for Crow Docs (v2.0). If you're looking for a document utility suite that actually respects your data, this is for you.
The core philosophy remains: 100% Client-Side Processing.
No uploads, no servers, no registration. Your documents never leave your computer. 🔒
Here is what’s new in this version:
🚀 New Features & Improvements
🎨 Markdown → Slides (New!)
Convert your Markdown files into professional PDF presentations instantly.
- Customization: Themes (Dark, Light, Blue, Green, Gradient).
- Layouts: 16:9 or 4:3 aspect ratios.
- Readability: Fully configurable font sizes.
🔍 Supercharged OCR
We’ve overhauled the character recognition engine:
- Parallel Processing: Faster multi-page recognition.
- Smart Auto-Rotation: Automatically detects and corrects page orientation.
- Global Language Support: New support for Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Arabic, Russian, Hindi, Turkish, Polish, Dutch, and multi-language combinations.
📄 Improved Workflow
- DOCX Preview: View your Word documents directly in the browser before converting to PDF.
- Progress Bars with ETA: Real-time tracking so you know exactly when your task will be finished.
- File Validation: Instant validation of file types and sizes before processing starts.
🐛 Bug Fixes & Stability
We’ve addressed several key issues to make the experience smoother:
- PDF → Word: Fixed the bug that limited conversions to the first page. Large documents now convert completely.
- Word → PDF (Academic Standards): Fixed the ABNT NBR 14724 formatting issues. Margins (3/2/3/2 cm), Arial 12pt, 1.5 spacing, and 1.25cm paragraph indents are now perfectly applied.
- Navigation: Fixed scroll hijacking. When returning from a tool, the site now keeps your exact scroll position on the main page.
🎨 New Visual Identity
Crow Docs has a fresh new look:
- Exclusive Logo: A new "Crow" icon that adapts to your theme (White for Dark Mode, Black for Light Mode).
- Consistent Branding: New favicon and OpenGraph images for better social media sharing.
